–Sixers coach Doug Collins changed his starting lineup after two games by inserting Andres Nocioni at small forward in Jason Kapono’s spot. Nocioni had six points and seven rebounds in 32 minutes against Indiana.

“He has to start for us,” Collins said. “‘Noce’ is going to give us more of a physical presence out there. It’s nothing Kapono did or did not do. We just need more physicality.”

–Collins after the loss to the Pacers, in which Indiana went on a 13-2 run to start the second half: “It’s like the same old movie. Bad stretches. We had a 13-point lead, and we had a bad stretch. We can’t keep doing the same thing over and over again.”

QUOTE TO NOTE: “We’re trying to build something here. We have to work hard.” — Coach Doug Collins.
